Pizzeria del Porto
About
Pizzeria del Porto, situated in the heart of Gaeta’s historic quarter, is more than a casual eatery – it is a living testament to the city’s culinary heritage. Established by master Carlo Avallone, the pizzeria specializes in traditional “Tiella” — a rustic, baked dish that blends layers of dough, fresh fish, and seasonal vegetables, echoing the maritime traditions of the Tyrrhenian coast. On any given day, guests can enjoy classic Italian pizzas, savory rosti, and the ever‑popular Giardiniera cocktails, all crafted with locally sourced ingredients. The interior exudes rustic charm, with exposed wooden beams, a bustling open‑air counter, and a relaxed patio overlooking the harbor. Whether dining in for lunch, savoring an evening pie, or attending a Tiella‑making workshop, the welcoming staff and friendly atmosphere make Pizzeria del Porto a must‑stop for both locals and travelers seeking authentic Italian flavors.
